We end a marathon day of football at Wembley Stadium which provides a fitting finale as Tottenham Hotspur host champions elect Manchester City.

But it’s not Pep Guardiola’s City that hold the interest for Fantasy managers, as Harry Kane goes into tonight’s contest as the most signed player ahead for Gameweek 34 (255,000+) and wearing just over a million armbands.

Kane’s recent output has been hampered by injury, though having been awarded a controversial goal at Stoke City in Gameweek 33, he still boasts attacking returns in five of his previous starts.

Christian Eriksen has also proved a big draw ahead of this encounter, claiming 158,000 new owners before today’s deadline to edge ahead in the popularity pecking order in the Spurs midfield.

Son Heung-min may just have slipped down that ladder – he is benched today as Erik Lamela gets the nod. The South Korean will therefore likely start the away fixture with Brighton on Tuesday, though only three of his 12 goals this season have come on the road.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Lamela is soo greedy

    1. Clintymints
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It's not even just that, it's his decision making that's just outrageous

  2. JONALDINHO

    Suppose Kane will claim assist after match...

    Ronka owns Eriksen. Ronka has a time machine, the filthy cheat.

          Not having a spectacular week tbf. I've got more points than him.

      That triple Brighton in defence didn't serve him well though.....

      and Kane(c) so far?

  4. ZimZalabim

    if shaq got an assist then so shd kane
    intended target and all that

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Exactly. Don’t understand the difference.

    2. TheRealDog
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Agree. I don't think Shaqiri should've gotten the assist but now they have to give Kane one as well

    How is it not a kane assist?

    Shaqiri was given the assist when it rebounded off lloris last week

    1. lilmessipran
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Exactly

    2. Differentiator
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      EXACTLY. INCONSISTENCY PEOPLE

    3. Collie01

      This

    4. *Reformed-Character*
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      It's not an assist fool

      1. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Why though? Did you read his post?

    5. El-Kloppico
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      this.

    6. Ramboros
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Shaqiri got given the assist because the pass was intended to Diouf, but Lloris touched it first and cleared it into Diouf.

      The inconsistency shows when they completely ignore that the ball bounced between Lloris and Diouf multiple times. It's unfair that Kane loses his assist because the block from Laporte is more clear than Lloris' multiple touches.

      They should really change how the guideline works for these sort of goals. A goal where the attacker scores on his own rebound (Max 1 block/save by the opponent) should give an assist if the original pass was not touched by any defenders. A very simple guideline that would add a couple of assists to the game that are actually deserved.

  7. Zilla
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    No assist given

  8. lilmessipran
    • 13 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Why is that not an assist for kane?

    1. EmreCan Hustle
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Defender cleared it onto Eriksen.

      1. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Lloris cleared onto Diouf last week and Shaq got the assist

        1. the axolotl
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          that's true actually. he should't have tho, and neither should Kane imo. i'm an owner of both

        2. EmreCan Hustle
          • 13 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I captained Kane in DGW 22 where Alli scored a similar goal. Kane didn't get the assist then.

      2. Pariße
        • 11 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Not cleared to be specific. It rebounded into Erik’s foot by his block.

  9. Davido989
    • 15 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Hopefully at half time Kane swears on his daughters life that it's his assist. Need those points man

  10. FPL ZB
    • Has Moderation Rights
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Surely that’s just a deflected Eriksen shot and so a Kane assist?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 16 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      2 shots

      1. FPL ZB
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        One shot? The deflection back off him definitely isn’t a shot?

        1. TorresMagic™
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Assist got stopped.

  11. Cok3y5murf
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Eriksen has been unstoppable since I sold him

  12. diesel001
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Jesus YC. He is quite petulant

  13. The Overthinker
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Lol @ us Alli owners 😛

    1. Ha.
      • 10 Years

      Regrets

      1. The Overthinker
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Eriksen was my first choice , but the got blinded by the "form" Alli was in and rest as they say is history

    2. Butcher

      Here here

    3. Jindaljain
      • 11 Years

    4. zon
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Yup. Got Son and Alli. Consistent for my season though

  14. Dr. DOOM
    • 8 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Didn't do Salah to Eriksen (-4). Start regretting it already?

    1. *Reformed-Character*
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Give it a rest you numpty

  15. CloudSky
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    Any trophies for most assists?

  16. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 1 month ago

    People expecting an assist there 😆 😆 😆

    1. Les Bleus
      • 14 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Did you see Shaqiri’s last week?

      1. Vlad Tepes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yes and Son assist vs Chelsea was bullshit to when Alli scored

      2. Rainer
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah Shaqiri was an intended pass.

        Erisken shot. Rebound. Eriksen goal.

        Kane too many phases back.

        1. Les Bleus
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Kane’s was intended too? The shot from Diouf was also rebounded

        2. mir
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Spot on. And I captained Kane

    2. Bubz
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      I don't get why people would even think it's an assist after seeing it. Unless they dont know the rules

      1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Because shaqiri was given a similar assist last week

        1. George Sillett
          • 10 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Drop it noob.

        2. *Reformed-Character*
          • 8 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Omg Demba it's not the same, try watching football instead of typing on here

      2. Les Bleus
        • 14 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        For me, it’s around consistency. No way is it an assist but seeing as how they Gabe Shaqiri one last week, I don’t understand how they wouldn’t give this one.

      3. El-Kloppico
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Dis you see the Diouf goal last week Bubz? Shaq got the assist though

      4. George Sillett
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Bloody hell I agree with you. ☺

    3. MTPockets
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I know right.

      • Collie01
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I don't really mind but didn't Shaqiri get one for the same thing last week?

    4. Witty Pun: Not good at this…
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Remember what happened last time City was beating a Top 4 side by 2 goals absolutely outclassing them with some truly beautiful football?

      A game is 90 minutes brethren! Chin up!

      1. The Overthinker
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        I totally believe in this

    5. _Greg
      • 16 Years

      Time to email fpl towers...nicely done Mr eriksen!

    6. jdp219
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Thinking about gw35, no FH.
      1) Willian, Vardy > Dilva, Tosun
      2) Willian, Vardy > Mili, Jesus
      3) Willian, Vardy > Mili, Firm

      Rest of squad for 35: Robertson, Liston, Mariappa; Salah, Gud, xxx; Barnes, xxx

    7. ZeBestee
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Fpl should give the assist to Kane to cover up the goal they robbed off him last week.

      1. Positive vibes
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Have you see him touched the ball?

        1. ZeBestee
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          I trust his word.

      2. niko mate
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        they've been harsh on him

    8. The Overthinker
      • 9 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Pamela F'ed that chance . Should have passed to eriksen

    9. DAZZ
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      FPL are incredibly inconsistent its really frustrating.

      1. TheRealDog
        • 12 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Yeah. Giving the Shaqiri assist was like asking for trouble.

        1. Mark
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 19 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          No, the difference was that Diouf didn't have an initial shot. Lloris kicked the ball onto Diouf who then gathered the rebound and scored.

          Eriksen clearly had a first attempt before the second touch scored the goal.

          1. *Reformed-Character*
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Thank you Mark

          2. Collie01
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Thanks for the explanation, makes sense.

        2. Clintymints
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Can of worms this season with going back on decisions

          Where's that Mustafi assist

          1. *Reformed-Character*
            • 8 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            Mustafi assist was a mistake from fpl, but not this one

            1. Clintymints
              • 16 Years
              8 years, 1 month ago

              Mustafi clearly got more fo the ball than Kane did tbh

              Shame there was absolutely 0 fuss for it

      2. Mark
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • Has Moderation Rights
        • 19 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Dazz see below. I don't recall any instance where a player has had an an initials shot blocked and then scored with a second touch when an assist has been awarded. Is there an example you can think of?

        1. DAZZ
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Please explain to me Mark, the difference between the Niasse assist today for Naughton's own goal.

    10. Sid07
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 1 month ago

      Can I do transfer before playing FH and will the player remain next week ??

      1. MTPockets
          8 years, 1 month ago

          no

        • Point-one short
          • 9 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          No

        • Clintymints
          • 16 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          All or nothing

          I guess the best time to do it is after players rise today?

          I've lots of lads rising tonight so might aswell keep them to get the extra .1's

      2. Sailboats
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Sub off Lamela please

        1. Pariße
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          This.

      3. Speédy
        • 9 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Kane pulled off a similar 'assist' in the earlier DGW for Alli 😆

        1. Mark
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 19 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          Yep, exactly. Clearly Eriksen's first attempt blocked.

      4. Cebolinha
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Kane claiming the goal?

        1. the axolotl
          • 14 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          wasn't that funny the 1st time. getting beyond tiresome now

          1. Cebolinha
            • 13 Years
            8 years, 1 month ago

            You must be a lot of fun at parties.

      5. TheTinman
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Ahhh man. Gutted about that Kane assist

      6. Hybrid.power
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 16 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Should have captained Lukaku. Ah well.

        1. GuillermoDickero
          • 11 Years
          8 years, 1 month ago

          There’s still a fair bit to go and the Brighton game!

      7. IL Fantasista
        • 13 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        What's the point of owning Kane if he doesn't get points awarded?

      8. Ha.
        • 10 Years
        8 years, 1 month ago

        Can’t decide what’s worse, by bringing in Eriksen, or bringing in Mahrez for a hit?
